Standard Style Trailer Hub that Fits as Replacement for Dexter Hub 8-245

Question:

Hi, I have an older camper frame that I am refurbishing. I need to replace the tires and hubs. It is an odd bolt pattern 9.44 x 4? The imprint on the Dexter hub says 8-245. I would like to change the bolts pattern while replacing this to something easier to find parts for. What would you suggest? I would like prices with and without brakes. It wont be going on the road, just around my hilly yard. Thanks

The part number 8-245 is an obsolete part number but I was able to find some info on it.

It was basically a 3,500 lb hub and drum that fit a 84 spindle. Because of that we have a solution that will fit. The part # AKHD-545-35-K is a 3,500 lb hub/drum that would fit the spindle you have on your trailer. This hub does have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern which is basically the most common bolt pattern that a trailer wheel could have. For without brake drums you'd need the part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K for an idler hub.
